# Update      : Bruce Dubbs - bdubbs@linuxfromscratch.org
#
# Version     : LFS 7.0
#
# Notes       : the IFCONFIG variable is passed to the scripts found
#               in the /lib/services directory, to indicate what file the
#               service should source to get interface specifications.
